In this report, we are going to analyze 1000 hotels across the US. and customers’ reviews toward each hotel. With the data we have, three main questions will be addressed in this data analytic report.
This question could be answered by looking at the number of hotels in each states. There is a significant relationship between tourism and hotel industry. Major growth of tourism leads to development of desirable infrastructural facilities such as hotel facilities in the country. Thus, if the state has the highest number of hotels, in general, the state will have a relatively developed tourism industry.
Knowing this information is helpful for tourists who care about the quality of hotels they live when they travel. Tourist can have a better insight to decide which state they are going to visit.
Hotel rating is an important index for hotel owners and managers to focus on because a higher hotel rating could attract more tourists to visit their hotels, and in the meanwhile, they could earn more profit. Thus, through the investigation of word sentimental analysis, hotel owners and managers can make a more cost and time efficient plan to “direct” consumers to write more review comments containing sentimental words which are associated with higher hotel rating.
From the map, we can tell that States like California, Texas, Florida, and New York are states that have most hotels. Among these states, California have the most hotels, 351 hotels. The state that holds least hotels are Alaska, which only has 14 hotels.
